新加坡:政府10月26日推出三项核能人才计划,公务员明年起赴国际机构培训

新加坡能源、贸易及工业部与能源市场管理局10月26日联合宣布推出三项人才发展计划,培养本地核能专业人才,提升新加坡评估先进核能技术是否适用于本地发电的能力,并为明年开展的综合核基础设施评估做准备。“新加坡核能人才发展计划”将推动政府机构与全球领先核能机构合作,安排参与能源发展的公务员到核能技术公司、工程采购与建筑公司及相关机构接受在职培训,了解核能领域实际运作,计划将于明年启动,并在未来几年逐步推行。“业界核能人力发展计划”将为部分新加坡企业提供资金支持,让员工参加国际培训和行业实习。另一个“新加坡未来能源专才计划”将邀请国际能源领域领袖,为新加坡长期能源战略提供独立建议,涵盖能源政策及核能等低碳技术。首批受委核能专家将在今年敲定,未来也可能纳入其他能源规划关键领域的专家,包括其他低碳能源路径,以及电网基础设施与规划。新加坡国立大学和南洋理工大学计划于2027年联合开设核工程硕士课程。能源、贸易及工业部长陈诗龙表示,即使新加坡最终不采用核能,也将继续加强相关专业能力。新加坡目前尚未就发展核能作出决定,人才计划的重点在于先建立评估能力,以便未来在需要时能够作出有依据的判断。
Singapore: Government Launches Three Nuclear Talent Programs on October 26, with Civil Servants to Train at International Institutions from Next Year
Singapore's Ministry of Trade and Industry and the Energy Market Authority jointly announced on October 26 the launch of three talent development programs to cultivate local nuclear energy professionals, enhance Singapore's ability to assess whether advanced nuclear technologies are suitable for local power generation, and prepare for a comprehensive nuclear infrastructure assessment to be carried out next year. The 'Singapore Nuclear Talent Development Programme' will promote cooperation between government agencies and leading global nuclear institutions, arranging for civil servants involved in energy development to receive on-the-job training at nuclear technology companies, engineering, procurement and construction companies and related institutions, to understand the actual operations of the nuclear energy field; the program will start next year and be rolled out progressively over the coming years. The 'Industry Nuclear Workforce Development Programme' will provide funding support to some Singapore companies, allowing employees to take part in international training and industry attachments. Another program, the 'Singapore Future Energy Experts Programme', will invite international energy-sector leaders to provide independent advice on Singapore's long-term energy strategy, covering energy policy and low-carbon technologies such as nuclear energy. The first batch of appointed nuclear experts will be finalized this year, and experts in other key areas of energy planning may be included in the future, including other low-carbon energy pathways, as well as grid infrastructure and planning. The National University of Singapore and Nanyang Technological University plan to jointly launch a master's program in nuclear engineering in 2027. Tan See Leng, Minister for Energy, Trade and Industry, said that even if Singapore ultimately does not adopt nuclear energy, it will continue to strengthen relevant professional capabilities. Singapore has not yet made a decision on developing nuclear energy; the focus of the talent programs is to first build assessment capability so that well-founded judgments can be made in the future when needed.
